Exceptional Adventures

Nature has blessed the Dominican Republic with stunning beauty and an exceptional climate. Every year, visitors enjoy the incredible natural environment by biking across the countryside, paragliding over the mountains, rafting down challenging rivers and diving among a magnificent coral reef.

Hilly towns, mountainous villages and protected parks provide ample opportunities for mountain biking. In Cabarete, adventure outfitters can take riders on multiple trails of varying difficulty inside El Choco National Park, including an intense 31-mile endurance challenge. The central mountainous region’s winding, traffic-free roads are lined with plantations from Jarabacoa to Constanza and are ideal to explore on bikes. Plus, there are plenty of rivers and waterfalls for cooling off along the way. Bayahíbe’s Cotubanamá National Park, ideally close to the town’s white-sand beaches, is as mystical as it gets, with paths leading toward spring-water-filled caves. Mountain bikes, with essential protective gear, are available year-round in the major resort towns.

The varied and interesting geological zones throughout the country offer countless encounters and excursions that will ignite the adventurous spirit of those who visit. Whether it´s by air, land or sea, you´ll be amazed at how many amazing options are available to adrenaline-seeking vacationers.
